If I fail you.

Inspiration for this chapter. I love this song so much

Knock, Knock

Hitoshi Shinzo slowly plodded his way to the door. Who the hell could be needing him at this hour. The door creaked open to show 3 young heroes shivering in the rain.
"Hey what are you doing outside, you guys are going to freeze to death out there." He moved aside and let them in. Shinzo turned to the only one he recognized.
"Midoriya!? What are you doing out this late? Does your father know you're here?"
"NO...and please don't tell him..." Hiro protesed.
"Why not?"
"Because we need your help, we know where your son is."
"...Izuki"

20 years ago.

Hitoshi sat in the empty classroom studying when a soft knock echoed around the room.
"Mr Hitoshi Shinzo... will you please come with me." Nezu asked, talking to the young boy's arm.

"We found out that a villain stole some of your DNA to try and replicate your quirk. He ended up making an entire human out of it. This is him... Meet 03." Shinzo, Aizawa and Nezu looked into the small room holding an even smaller boy.
"A child...?" Shinzo put his hand on the one way glass.
"Yes, and made with your DNA." Aizawa mumbled.
"So I guess that would make him your son ha ha" The rondent smiled. The three men stood in silence staring at the tiny purple haired boy looking curiously at a teddy bear in front of him.
"Can...Can I talk to him?" The question at first shocked Nezu and Aizawa but after looking at how upset Shinzo looked they let him. The glass door loudly opened scaring the small boy, he got up and hid behind the lounge. Shinzo knew he had to approach carefully.
"Hello um... 03." the moment he said the numbers he heard a small whimper.
"Oh... do you not like that name, do you have a name you wanna be called?" 03 looked around the lounge and shook his head.
"You don't have a name, would you like me to give you one?" 03's eyes lit up as he stepped forward.
"How about ummm... Izuki?" Shinzo smiled and 03 smiled back at his new name.
"Can you say Izuki?"
"I...Izuki, Izuki!" Izuki smiled and walked towards Shinzo and sat next to him and asked,
"Who are you?"
"Well, my name is Hitoshi Shinzo, and I'm you dad I guess."

Every day after school Shinzo would go visit Izuki at the orphanage without fail. However one day the clock hit 5 and Izuki didn't hear that familler call from his father from the door. Izuki had his eyes glued to the clock counting the minutes go by. Hitoshi was never more than 5 minutes late.

5:30

6:00

7:00

7:30

Still nothing. One of his carers walked in.
"Izuki, I'm sorry I don't think he is coming today." she tried to say as nicely as possible. But the young boy started to cry.
"Did Daddy forget about me...?" he sobbed
"No, I'm sure he is just..."
"WAIT" the door bursts open. Hitoshi was panting like he had just ran a marathon.
"DADDY!" Izuki ran and dove into Hitoshi's muscular arms.
"Why were you late?"
"Well Izuki, I had to fight tooth and nail for these but i finally got them." He pulled out a small stack of papers.
"Izuki...you can come home with me now, you are officially my son!" Izuki's blue eyes lit up with happiness and hugged his dad even tighter. Hitoshi kissed him on the forehead.
"Let's go, Izuki Shinzo.

As the years went by Hitoshi noticed Izuki was different then the other kids. He grew faster than the others, after only two years at the age of 6 Izuki was starting middle school.

One afternoon Hitoshi was finishing off work, filling out paperwork and patching up any cuts or bruises when he got a phone call.

Phone call

Hitoshi: Hello?

Teacher: Mr Shinzo, come down to your son's school immediately!

Hitoshii: Sigh... what did he do this time.

Teacher: He used his quirk on some second year boys, he told them to jump out the window, thank god they were on the first floor and they didn't get too hurt.

Hitoshi: I will be right there.

Phone call end

The rain hit the window softly, Izuki watched as the raindrops rolled down and disappeared.
"Izuki Den Shinzo..." He flinched at his full name being called.
"What have I said about using quirk to hurt people..."
"They hurt me first!" he yelled, cutting his father off. Hitoshi stayed silent for a second. His voice calmed.
"What did they do?"
"They... They said my eyes looked creepy when they glow, and they poked me in the eye and it really hurt." Izuki looked up at this dad. He had his head down for the whole car ride so Hitoshi didn't notice the purple bruise under his left eye. Shinzo pulled over onto the side of the road and grabbed his face so he could get a better look.
"Those bastards!" Hitoshi exclaimed.
"you need ice on that." he started the car again and skidded off.

They were both at home and Hitoshi was holding an ice cube under his son's eye.
"Izuki... you have to promise me something. No matter how much they hurt you, you can't use your quirk to hurt them, ok. You need to be the bigger man." Izuki nodded at his father's words however he didn't take them in at all, they went in one ear and out the other.
"I love you, ok Zuki."
"I love you too dad."

-

Over the years Izuki got into trouble more often but one night he took it too far. It was the middle of the night and Izuki was late. At first Hitoshi didn't worry. Izuki was 16 (accally 10 tho) and he trusted him but a loud knock came from the front door. Waiting outside was Lumina Todoroki who just got off work holding a beaten up Izuki in handcuffs.
"Zuki... What did you DO!" He gasped. He could look his father in his eyes.
"I found him tagging along with a group of villains who were attempting to rob a service station." Lumina answered for him.
"Villains!"
"I will leave him to you." the brunette said letting go of him.
"Thank you Storm." Hitoshi said before slamming the door.

Villains, VILLAINS IZUKI!" he screamed at his son.
"They weren't villains dad, they were just some mates." Izuki tried to calm his father down.
"Bullshit. I know you are having a hard time at school but this is not the way to go!" Hitoshi tried to pull Izuki into a hug but he was pushed away.
"I DON'T CARE, I am hated by everyone, at school, at work, by the heroes who know what I am, I finally find people who don't treat me like shit and you are trying to take that away from me." Izuki screamed, he was almost on the verge of tears.
"I don't hate you son." Hitoshi said with a calm soothing voice.
"AND WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU! YOUR NOT MY DAD, I WAS MADE IN A TEST TUBE, YOUR A STRANGER. YOU AREN'T MY DAMN DAD" Izuki screamed so loud he almost lost his voice.
"Izuki..."
"WHA....." Izuki was under Hitoshi's quirk. The Purple haired man raised his hand and slapped Izuki across the face.

The slap echoed through the room. Izuki looked up at the man he called Father, tears in his eyes.
"Fuck you" he stormed off, leaving Hitoshi alone.

-

Hitoshi could sleep, he was filled with guilt. He opened the door to his son's room to find it empty. That was the last time he saw Izuki. Next time he saw him he wasn't the same. He has carried that guilt every day Izuki was gone. He can't help but think that if he handled it better this mess would have never happened.

He had one chance left.

He would not fail Izuki again because he still loved his son. More than anything.
